Although fruits are rich in nutrients, many mothers want their babies to eat fruits early to supplement their bodies with vitamins and other nutrients. But sometimes I don't know what age is suitable for babies to eat fruits, so what age can babies eat fruits? Let's learn about it through the following article!
Letting babies eat fruits usually requires them to eat a moderate amount of fruit after 6 months, but not too much, because during this period, the baby's digestive system is still delicate and their tolerance is insufficient. Eating too much fruit can sometimes lead to diarrhea.
But during this period, the fruits eaten need to be processed into water juice or steamed into fruit puree for babies to consume. Remember that at this age, it is not advisable to feed your baby in granular form, as during this period, although their baby teeth have just begun to sprout, they do not have the ability to chew. Therefore, fruits eaten during this period must be mainly in liquid and paste form.
When the baby is about one year old, there are about 10 baby teeth and they have basic chewing ability. During this period, you can give the baby some soft granular fruits to eat, such as cutting bananas into chunks and feeding them to the baby, or steaming avocados before feeding them to the baby. These are all good ways to give babies fruits.
